Question 884874: A concentrated cleaner recommends using 1/4 cup of cleaner for every 25 fluid ounces of hot water. If Erik wants to make three gallons of mixed solution, approximately how much cleaner should he use? Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! How many ounces in a gallon? 128
Erik wants to make 3 gallons, or 128*3 ounces -> 384 ounces
He needs c per 25 ounces.
384/25 = 15.36 "25 ounce portions"
15.36 * .25 (converted 1/4 to decimal) = 3.84 cups of cleaner
